Was you able to use the original drive shaft? If not details please

jhrusk · 01-27-2013, 05:23 PM

I did not use the original as the frame I used was bare when I started,I did use a standard one piece that was shorted and re-balanced.

aggie91 · 02-08-2013, 10:14 AM

You are doing amazing work. I like your rear brake line routing. I just read thru the whole thread, Can you post your wheel and tire specs? I like the look and might want to do a similar tire size on mine someday. Thanks!

jhrusk · 02-08-2013, 02:35 PM

not a problem aggie91.15x8.5,285/70/15 rears, 15x5,165/80/15 fronts.american racing tto wheels. And thanks for the comments everyone.

I have gotten a little bit done I just havent posted yet.Had a lot of other things going on but I still am making progress and thanks for asking.

flips72 · 04-20-2013, 09:26 PM

man this is a killer build, absolutly awesome skills

and it was nice meeting you today, wish we could have talked longer but traffic was pushing us on down the road. i will for sure be keeping up with this one.

jhrusk · 06-17-2013, 06:56 PM

Hey guys I have'nt posted in a while been busy with different things. I had the opportunity to build my first set of stainless headers for a friend of mine.He built a 55 chevy with a 454 and a tremec 5-speed, it also has a rack and pinion so buying headers that would fit was out of the question.

Finally had a chance to get some work done on the truck, I sent it out and had everything blasted,most of the major rust repair has been done so now I will get it in epoxy and start with the body work,I've got two new door skins that look really nice but seeing how they fit will be another story. Well I hope to make some progress in the near future. Thanks for looking.
